Arrived in perfect condition. Surfaces are protected. Accurate sizing.

(Edited to correct numerical typos and shorten.)
I ordered three of these 12" x 24" polycarbonate sheets, specified to be .062" thick (about 1/16" = 0.0625"). They arrived in perfect condition packed in a large box. The thin sheets of plastic stuck on each surface to protect against scratches are easily removed. The edges are not particularly sharp when touched with fingers.

My thickness measurements with a dial caliper averaged about 0.064" -- certainly close enough to to 0.062" to call it accurately sized! To give you an idea of a sheet's stiffness: supported horizontally very close to the ends, this two-foot long sheet sags about 1 1/4" in the middle. Note that this product is polycarbonate, NOT Plexiglas or Lucite, which are acrylic. (See the Wikipedia entries for polycarbonate and acrylic glass.) Acrylic usually costs less, but I saw somewhere that it may not work as well for my intended use.

I used one sheet as a transparent "white board" with dry-erase markers*, which works well. We lay this sheet on top of printed-out dot-to-dot and maze activities for my preschooler. Then he can draw, wipe clean, and re-do any of the sheets by himself. No more printing out more copies!

(*It appears that dry erase markers are not all the same--a new Lakeshore® Dry-Erase marker erased easily and completely, while an older Expo® Bold Color Dry Erase would not erase completely. It could be the Expo was older, or perhaps there is some other difference.)

The sheet arrived quickly and in perfect condition - no scratches or chips. Very strong, very clear, yet it cut easily with a razor.
